IN CASE YOU WANTED TO KNOW BUT WERE AFRAID TO ASK!

 

 Here are a few questions you just might be anxious to see the answers for.  The questions are courtesy of my dear and most talented author friend, Kristi Ahlers.And to check out her questions and answers click here for her blog, Kristi

What is the title of your work in progress? “Talone’s Promise.” It is a medieval romance. I am also working on several more.

Where did the idea come from for this book? It sorta of jumped into my mind back in 1995 when I was driving to and from a patient’s house.

What genre does your book fall under? Historical.

What authors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition? Wow, that is a hard question.  I have no idea.

What is the one sentence synopsis of your book? Treachery, distrust, and honor collide when a warrior and a lady meet off the field of battle. Or something like that.

Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency? I am probably going with a publication house on this one.

How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript? Well, I started it in 1995, stopped for five years, and then it took me two years to finish.  So overall seven years for the writing, and I am editing it now.

What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?  Maybe “The Dragon & The Rose” by GiniRifkin

Who or what inspired you to write this book?  I have no idea. I have just always loved medieval romance.

What else about your book may pique the readers' interest?  There is an underlying matchmaking attempt as well as a villain who will make you want to smack him.
